I own original Sims 1 & Sims 2, why do I have to buy it again?

I already own the original Sims 1 & Sims 2 plus most of the packs for them. 
Why do I have to buy it again to play it on my windows 11 computer? 
If I've already bought them then why aren't the new versions free?

  • While I don't disagree with you, this is one of those "customer service" type questions that may be ignored here.  A short answer that I can give you is that they updated both Sims 1 and 2 to be more compatible with today's current PCs. Watching Dr.Gluon play both games, I saw they they looked refreshed and crisper.

    Thank you for responding <3. Is there a better place to put this question? I paid a ton of money before to get all the Sims 1 and 2 expansions(as well as 3 and 4). There's no reason other than greed that they are asking those who bought it to pay again. I have been a loyal customer of EA and the Sims games. It's pretty crappy to try to get us to pay again, for what we've already paid thousands of dollars for.

    I don't know, at the moment. Maybe try the codes in the EA app again?
